I am writing a simple perl program that is normally called from the command
line with a filename as an argument. I need the full absolute path and name
for this file. It is for WIN32 system that has multiple volumes (ie C: D:)
Examples
c:\myarea>myscript fred
-----> c:\myarea\fred
c:\myarea>myscript d:fred
-----> d:\current_directroy_of_volume_D\fred
I am new to perl but have searched extensively for a SIMPLE solution. It
seems to be a straightforward enough task and I am wondering whether I am
missing something obvious.
The file in question will always exist and has a file handle if that helps.
Regards
Donald.
